November 18^th is National Injury Prevention Day (NIPD) — a day to raise awareness about preventing injuries and violence, the leading cause of death and hospitalization for people ages 1–44.  On this day, join us as buildings, landmarks, and homes across the country light up GREEN in support of injury prevention.  Green is a color that reflects our shared goal of creating safer, and healthier communities by improving local systems and promoting everyday safety practices.   We all play a role in reducing preventable injuries. 

Join the movement, learn more, and help spread awareness by adding your NIPD activities and resources at  nationalinjurypreventionday.org. If you post events, stats, injury prevention tips, information or photos on social media platforms we ask you use #BeInjuryFree or #NationalInjuryPreventionDay and tag Injury Free Coalition for Kids.
